All Chapters of The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me: Chapter 81 - Chapter 88

Carmen’s POVFor the rest of the day, my heart kept beating rapidly.“Are you okay?” Chase had asked when he noticed it at some point.“Yes, I am fine,” I lied.I felt as though I would have a cardiac arrest because of the pressure. Till now, I still hadn’t been able to come up with anything that I could do to ensure that Chase got his desire. He hadn’t been very explanatory with me about everything. I was only using my discretion based off of everything we had been working on.“Finish up the rest of the tasks for today, and you can leave,” Chase told me.Closing for the day and returning to my apartment had slowly become the best part of my day. There, I didn’t need to be under much pressure as I was with Chase here. The pressure from him was rubbing off on me. “Alright,” I responded.“Are you prepared for the event?” Chase asked me. “It’s in two days,” he reminded me.I tried to swallow my saliva, but I realized that the moment those words came out of his mouth, my throat became dr

Carmen’s POV“Are you going to tell Chase?” Millie asked me.“What would I tell him?” I asked Millie in return. “Do I just go to him and say that Mr. Lawrence and Coach Fred accosted me, and Jonathan Price came to my house to speak to me?” I questioned her further.“More like attacked you,” Millie corrected.“Is that what I should tell Chase?” I asked Millie angrily.“But you have to tell him, Carmen,” Millie insisted.I shook my head and began to pace around. It just didn’t seem right to tell Chase about it because I had no idea how he would take it or what he would do. What if he didn’t believe me? What if things escalated beyond this?I had already given Chase too much trouble, and I didn’t think I wanted to get into more of it.“I am not going to say a word about it,” I said with certainty.My tone was so stiff that Millie understood that I didn’t want to talk about it again.“What then are you going to do?” Millie asked.“I don’t know, I guess I will just have to think of somethi

Carmen’s POV“Rise and shine, Carmen Vega!” Millie announced loudly, forcing me to wake up from my sleep.I had slept really late because of the anxiety of what the day held, and I was still trying to catch some sleep before Millie walked in like a tornado announcing her presence.“Gosh, Millie, do you even realize that I am trying to get some sleep?” I asked Millie as I managed to open my eyes.She made things worse by going to the window and opening it, allowing the brightness of the morning to penetrate into the room, almost blinding me in the process. “This is cruelty, Millie,” I grumbled dejectedly.I really didn’t want to wake up today. I had wished to sleep so badly that I would skip this very day and wake up the next day. It would be worse, but by then, I wouldn’t have to feel this way about the day. I really didn’t want to deal with anything today, and certainly not my family’s intimate party and the event I was attending with Chase Maddox later today.The day just began for

Chase’s POV“Is there a problem?” I asked Carmen.She looked like she had seen a ghost when I made my demand.In all honesty, I knew that I shouldn’t be here, but I was so restless that I didn’t know where else I could have gone. One minute I was driving my car out of my garage, and the next minute, I was at Carmen’s front door.I had simply told myself that being here for the leg massage was a good excuse. Meanwhile, I wasn’t feeling any pain. Carmen’s magic hands had helped in making me feel better. Maybe a part of me just needed to see Carmen to make this nervousness go away.Thankfully, I was able to convince Kevin to accept Donny’s offer. It wasn’t without coming up with a plan, and of course, some high cost, but I was willing to do anything just go get me an insider on Donny’s team so that I would be aware of every move he made.If I wanted to be two steps ahead, I would really have to do what I needed to do.However, I hadn’t felt better. The entire night had been restless for
